So what could be more natural than to remember and celebrate this moment of happiness every year? What's more, on the 12th year, we celebrate the Silk Wedding!

The perfect excuse to give or receive silk gifts...

A material for every wedding anniversary

Did you know that each year of marriage is associated with a particular fabric?

1 year of marriage : cotton wedding anniversary
2 years : leather wedding
3 years : wheat wedding
4 years : wax wedding
5 years : wooden wedding anniversary etc...

For the 12th year of marriage, a silk wedding is celebrated. Traditionally, silk is given as a gift to mark the occasion.

Silk, symbol of softness, refinement and patience

According to a Chinese proverb, "With time and patience, mulberry leaves turn into a silk dress".

In fact, silk comes from the cocoons of the mulberry bombyx. The caterpillar feeds on mulberry leaves and then secretes the precious thread. It takes time and many silkworms for the fabric to come to life. Silk nuptials symbolize this patience and pricelessness.

The more the years go by, the more your couple blossoms.

Silk is also a noble and precious material, often used in wedding dresses. It represents the softness and happiness of union.
